Even the most beautiful flowers only bloom for a few weeks a year.
And the rest of the time?
They rest on their laurels I suppose.
Left to reminisce about the good old days.
Or psych themselves up for future Mays.
Telling all they happen to see
how cool it will be
the next time they bloom.
If only the plants could learn to live in the present.
Free from anxiety about the past
or anticipation of the future.
But they can’t.
They’re just plants.
Terribly anxious things.
